Say hello to Doctor Dorian Treever, evil mad scientist extraordinaire.

He met an unfortunate accident one day when he was experimenting on his own dog. Their DNA fused, and now he's half man, half Labrador. Both personalities in one.



Happy Halloween you guys. >:3


Start to finish it took me only a month, planning, execution, everything.

The concept art:


His jaw moves when I speak, and there is a fan inside so I have plenty of fresh air.

How did I make it?
Plastic cross-stitch canvas, yarn, uphulstery foam, hot glue, Super Sculpey clay, fake fur, plastic bowls, paint.

I've made a halloween costume for myself every year since 1999, first out of paper mache, then I moved on to Plastic canvas/foam since I could get better results with it. Then I started making how-to's for my site, and eventually was invited to teach classes at a convention, where I recieved college credit.

Information on how I made this type of costume is on my website's costuming section.

For now, though, that's the only picture I have of my Mad Scientist Labrador costume, I'll have more up on my site soon once I get my own computer working (the power supply went out, and I'm currently using my mother's computer).
